Mark Axton and Dan Clark are the founders of the Swashbucker's Ball in Portland, OR. It's happening this Saturday November 11th at the Melody Ballroom in Portland.
Mark and Dan tell us how the Ball came to be 8 years ago, why they keep doing it, and what they've learned along the way. Besides good pirat community talk, there's also some great event production info here!
